Chapter 98: Beating up the Haotian Sect's envoy, Haotian Sect pays compensation

Although Tang Xiao was very angry about the behavior of the Great Elder and wanted to beat him up, he knew that if he attacked any of the seven elders, he would be attacked by the seven elders together. Besides, he, Tang Xiao, could not support the Haotian Sect alone, so he could only swallow his anger.

The next day, Tang Xiao secretly sent people to the outside world and announced to the whole continent again: Haotian Sect had expelled Tang Hao from the sect, and what Tang Hao did was entirely personal and had nothing to do with Haotian Sect, and Haotian Sect was unaware of it.

Moreover, Tang Xiao was nominally in the right, but in order to find an opportunity to get back the inherited soul bones, he deliberately reversed right and wrong and claimed to the outside world: Tang Hao stole two inherited soul bones from the Haotian Sect, and the Haotian Sect had long issued a wanted order for Tang Hao, but unfortunately it was intercepted by a traitor in the sect and the wanted order was not issued; now the Haotian Sect has eliminated the traitor, and reissued the wanted order, calling on the forces that obtained the Haotian Sect's inherited soul bones to return the soul bones as soon as possible.

Another team from the Haotian Sect, led by Tang Juquan, a level 81 Soul Douluo whose time was approaching, went to the Jidao Yin-Yang Leopard Clan to pretend to seek peace.

In order to prevent the Extreme Yin Yang Leopard Clan from finding the hiding place of the Haotian Sect based on the path they took to enter Beiyuan, Tang Juquan went around in circles for several times before finally arriving near Beiyuan. Unfortunately, in front of Zhuang Xingyu who was familiar with the plot, it was all in vain.

……

In the meeting hall of the Lord's Mansion of Jidao Yinyang Baocheng, Zhuang Jingxing was reading a letter, which read:

[Brother Jingxing, I haven't seen you for many years. I miss you so much! I'm very sorry for disturbing you.]

[Please allow me to express my gratitude to the nobles on behalf of all the members of the Haotian clan! Although Tang Hao is my biological brother with the same father and mother, Tang Hao was domineering and bullied men and women during his time in the clan, and he did whatever he wanted, bringing great disaster to all members of my clan;]

[Later, Tang Hao stole the sect's inherited soul bones for his own selfish desires. When I heard that Tang Hao had colluded with a hundred thousand year soul beast with the intention of destroying the human race, I was even more heartbroken and regretted not having dealt with it in advance when it was weak, which almost led to a disaster.]

[I broke off relations with Tang Hao a long time ago, and I wish I could pull out his tendons and eat his bones. My Haotian Sect also expelled him from the sect and removed his name from the family tree a long time ago.]

[Some time ago, I heard about the nobles' heroic feat of beheading the soul beast spy Tang Hao at a huge cost for the sake of peace and development of the human race. I was very impressed.]

[But considering that the nobles were holding family celebrations and title celebrations at the time, I didn't dare to disturb them. Now that I finally have time, I want to resolve the misunderstanding caused by Tang Hao with the nobles. If the nobles need any help from my Haotian Sect, even if it means emptying the sect's treasury, my sect will not hesitate. ]

[The envoy of our Haotian Sect has arrived at the outer boundary of the buffer zone divided by the nobles, begging the nobles to allow our clan to visit. ]

[The Extreme Yin Yang Leopard Clan and the Haotian Sect are both the top forces on the continent. If we can reconcile and deepen cooperation, it will not only be beneficial to the development of our two clans, but also make a huge contribution to the peace and development of Douluo Continent! ]

[Master of Haotian Sect: Tang Xiao]

After reading the letter, Zhuang Jingxing asked the tribe member who found it, "Are you saying that this letter was thrown to you by a masked soul saint when you were patrolling the border of the buffer zone?"

"My Lord, yes. I was patrolling the border of the buffer zone as usual. It was already pitch black when a Soul Saint suddenly appeared and said that his master had something important to discuss with you. He threw this letter to me and ran away. I was only at the Soul King level and did not dare to pursue him carelessly. I quickly reported the matter and checked the letter to see if there was any foul play. This is what happened."

"Well done, go down and claim your reward." Zhuang Jingxing smiled, then said to everyone, "Tang Xiao's methods are too crude. Everyone take a look at the letter and tell us what you think!" After that, he handed the letter to the others.

The six core elders smiled and expressed their opinions: "This Haotian Sect is totally unworthy of its name, it's just a paper tiger!"

The four core elders analyzed: "According to our intelligence, before the Haotian Sect sealed itself, the seven elders in the sect were all of good age and spirit power, and many hoped to break through to the Titled Douluo. Now they are pretending to seek peace, and their purpose should be to buy time for the Haotian Sect to develop."

Zhuang Jingxi couldn't help but sneer, "Tang Xiao is so stupid! He's the leader of Haotian Sect, but even a 3-year-old child can figure out such a simple plan. No wonder his Haotian Sect is declining."

The core elder immediately requested to fight: "Patriarch, two supreme elders, let's just execute the plan ahead of time and destroy the Haotian Sect now! If we wait for a while, and the elders of the Haotian Sect all break through to the Titled Douluo, the price we pay will be higher. I am willing to lead the charge."

The other core elders and clan elders also volunteered to join the battle.

Zhuang Jingxing waved his hand, signaling everyone to stop the discussion. "Yes, everyone's opinions are very pertinent. But since the Haotian Sect is pretending to seek peace, why don't we take advantage of their tricks and blackmail them first, pretend to sign a contract, and when they let down their guard, we can start a hidden move and destroy the Haotian Sect in one battle at the lowest cost."

"Ten core elders, you will receive the envoys from the Haotian Sect and treat them according to the standards of the lowest-level affiliated forces. Treat them well, as long as no one is killed."

"Yes!"

…On the second day, outside the city of the Jidao Yin-Yang Leopard Clan, in a satellite city.

Tang Juquan and his group were taken to the satellite city. His subordinate Tang Wen was furious and secretly sent a message to Tang Juquan: "Captain, this Extreme Yin Yang Leopard Clan is going too far! Although we are visiting secretly, we are one of the top forces on the continent after all, and we are visiting with valuable gifts, but their Extreme Yin Yang Leopard Clan only sent an ordinary person without soul power to welcome us, and even refused to let us enter the Extreme Yin Yang Leopard City."

Upon hearing this, Tang Juquan hurriedly observed the surroundings carefully. After ensuring safety, he secretly transmitted a message and ordered: "Shut up, don't talk nonsense, be careful not to be heard by outsiders. Don't forget our mission this time. As long as we can complete the mission, it doesn't matter if we suffer a little grievance. When the fifth, sixth, and seventh elders break through to the Title Douluo, we will make them pay back a hundredfold!"

The ordinary member of the Extreme Yin Yang Leopard Clan brought Tang Juquan to the door of a mansion and said, "The ten core elders are resting inside. You guys wait for notification here!"

"Okay, okay, thank you for your help, it's my honor to wait here." Tang Juquan thanked the guide with a smile on his face. Although Tang Juquan wanted to punch him, he didn't dare to do it.

After an unknown amount of time, Tang Juquan was still waiting outside the door. The ten core elders in the mansion slowly stood up and said, "Let those ants outside come in!"

The attendant next to him ordered, "You can go in and pay homage to the ten core elders now."

After Tang Juquan knocked on the door and entered, he found the ten core elders lying on rocking chairs, holding two walnuts in their hands, with their eyes slightly narrowed, as if they didn't see them.

Tang Juquan quickly presented the valuable gift, bowed and asked: "I am Tang Juquan, the envoy of Haotian Sect. I am very honored to visit the nobles. I believe that you are one of the ten core elders of the Extreme Emperor Bear Clan. I have admired you for a long time. I wonder where the noble clan leader and the two supreme elders are. My Haotian Sect has something important to discuss with you."

The ten core elders were still lying there, coiling their walnuts, and did not answer.

Tang Juquan bent down further, with an even more humble expression, and asked again.

The ten core elders remained indifferent until Tang Juquan asked for the fourth time, then he said leisurely: "The supreme elders and clan leaders are of noble status and are busy with all kinds of affairs. It's not just anyone who can come and pay homage to them!"

"Don't you see your own status? You are a bunch of country bumpkins who are not worthy of being on the stage. You have lost your home and are just clowns. Meeting you? I will offend the eyes of our clan leader and the supreme elder!"

The ten core elders didn't waste any more time talking to them, and attacked Tang Juquan and his group directly. "Today I will teach you a lesson, and teach you what the rules are. Can't you see that I was resting my mind with my eyes closed? Instead, I was buzzing like a fly!" Tang Juquan couldn't resist at all, and didn't dare to resist. The moment he was chosen to go to the Extreme Yin Yang Leopard Clan, he knew that he had been abandoned by the Haotian Sect, and he was the sacrifice. He had to successfully reach an agreement with the Extreme Yin Yang Leopard Clan so that his wife and children could survive.

Tang Juquan retreated more than ten steps before he stopped, and even vomited blood several times, obviously suffering from severe internal injuries.

The ten core elders' soul power was higher than Tang Juquan's, and they had taken the Divine Consciousness Pill and other elixirs, so their mental power was much higher than Tang Juquan's. Just now, they used mental attacks, and it would be difficult for Tang Juquan to increase his soul power in the future.

As for the rest of the Haotian Sect's envoys, their spirit power was not as good as Tang Juquan's, and they were all blown away. The lightest one had a comminuted fracture of the sternum.

After seeing the ten core elders enjoying themselves, Tang Juquan dared to speak: "Misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding! Senior, this is all my fault."

The ten core elders also stopped attacking and asked jokingly, "Oh, then tell me where you went wrong?"

"Junior is wrong in every way!"

"That's right. Since you are here to seek peace, let me see your sincerity."

"Senior, in addition to the valuable gift I just handed over, our sect leader promised that as long as the nobles are willing to cooperate with our Haotian Sect, our sect will immediately give them 600 million gold soul coins and a 1-year soul bone."

"Pa!" Upon hearing this, the ten core elders slapped Tang Juquan again, "Are you, Haotian Sect, sending away beggars? Who are you insulting?"

Tang Juquan begged for mercy quickly, "Senior, please calm down, calm down. If it's not enough, we can talk about it again."

"Talk again? Can you, a level 81 Soul Douluo, be the master of the Haotian Sect?"

"Well, well..." Tang Juquan was silent.

"Hmph! Let me give you a number: 3 complete soul bones that are at least 2 years old, 2000 million gold soul coins. Tell this to Tang Xiao, if you can negotiate, then negotiate, if you can't, then don't negotiate."

"Ah, this, this, this." Tang Juquan's face turned pale when he heard this. Their Haotian Sect has been self-proclaimed for many years. Except for Tang Yuehua's Yuexuan that can secretly purchase some supplies, there is no other economic income at all. It is completely eating up the mountain. In addition, in order to allow the seven elders to break through the Titled Douluo, the sect's treasury is about to be emptied.

2000 million gold soul coins can be taken out by gritting one's teeth, but many elders do not have three soul bones that are more than 2 years old, so they cannot be taken out at all, unless the sect leader's arms and one leg are removed.

"What, you don't want to compensate? You are not even willing to give out this little thing, you have no sincerity at all. It seems that your Haotian Sect is not here to reconcile, but to cause trouble."

Looking at the increasingly dangerous eyes of the ten core elders, Tang Juquan was terrified. If he went back with this negotiation result, he would definitely be chopped into pieces by Tang Xiao. But if he did not agree to the compensation of the ten core elders, he would be dead now. He could still distinguish between what was more important and what was not.

Tang Juquan cried out, "Senior, we will definitely compensate you! I will go back and tell the Sect Master right away. But our sect really can't give you soul bones! Even if I sell myself, I still can't get any!"

The ten core elders smiled in their hearts, thinking, "Of course I know you can't take it out. "My Extreme Yin Yang Leopard Clan is also a reasonable person. Since you can't take out those soul bones, then use gold soul coins of equal value, soul bones with lower age and other resources instead!"

"Okay, okay, thank you, senior."

"Hey, don't look so sad! My Jidao Yin Yang Leopard Clan has forgiven your mistakes, you should be happy. If you don't know, you might think my clan bullied you."

"Senior, you are right. I am very grateful and very happy." Tang Juquan could only force a smile and agree.

“You’re welcome. My greatest hobby is to do good deeds every day! However, you have to behave yourself and don’t play any tricks, otherwise…” the three core elders said with a smile.

"No, no, let's go back and prepare immediately." Tang Juquan looked at the other person's smiling face. He became more and more scared and quickly agreed.

After Tang Juquan brought the news back to Haotian Sect, he was beaten up by Tang Xiao again, "Useless! If you can't even handle such a small matter, what use are you?"

Poor Tang Juquan was injured again.

The fifth elder of Haotian Sect was the first to disagree. He was about to break through the title. If he gave these resources to others, he would have to wait a few more years. By then, even if he could break through level 90, it would not be a great achievement.

"I don't agree. Absolutely not. The Extreme Yin Yang Leopard Clan is going too far. We can't even give them three complete soul bones older than 3 years, 2 million gold soul coins, or resources of equal value!"

Tang Xiao glanced at the Fifth Elder coldly, "Fifth Elder, do you have any better ideas? Judging from the attitude of the Extreme Yin Yang Leopard Tribe today, their strength is definitely greater than ours. If they attack us midway, what should we do?"

"We, we, this..." The fifth elder found it difficult to answer.

Finally, Tang Xiao made a decision: "Come here, tell the Extreme Yin Yang Leopard Tribe that I agree to their conditions, but all the Titled Douluo of the Extreme Yin Yang Leopard Tribe must swear with their martial spirits, swearing that they must live in peace with our sect for the next 10 years. If they break the oath, their soul power will be wasted, including the title of the Dark Vein."

Tang Hao continued, "My fellow elders, this is already the best solution. Don't worry about the gains and losses for the time being. When we have eight Titled Douluo, we will eventually get these lost things back!"

"Pass on my order. The first, second, and third elders will take their people to stay behind in the sect. All other Soul Douluo and above will follow me to secretly go to the Xingdou Great Forest to hunt soul beasts and obtain resources starting tomorrow."

"Elders, what do you think?"

"We have no objection!" The seven elders rarely reached an agreement with Tang Xiao.

After hearing this, Zhuang Xingyu naturally asked the family to agree. It was just an oath! For others, this was a huge price to pay. But don't forget that Zhuang Xingyu had the Chaos Pearl. When Murong Yunxue and others swore, Zhuang Xingyu directly used the Chaos Pearl to cover it up, and the oath would not work!

Sure enough, this line of work makes gold soul coins quickly! I easily did nothing and got tens of millions of gold soul coins.
